Vladimir Kuznetsov

Senior Front-end Developer

Quintegro, Dec 2020 — Present

I joined the team as an external contractor for a project and quickly took the leading roles on many other projects in the company. We make large-scale React SPAs and hybrid applications for several public companies in the USA.

I trained my colleagues to use cutting-edge technologies, libraries, and tools in our daily routine. We introduced and keep using the best practices in the industry like peer code review, style and code listing, and automated build and deployment processes. All these steps help the teams focus on the tasks and deliver high-quality code.

I have successfully built and deployed distributed system showing the current works and issues on the electrical networks for PowerNet Limited (Invercargill, New Zealand) and Network Waitaki Limited (Oamaru, New Zealand). The project let the companies dramatically reduce their paper works and speed up the coordination of field crews.

Also, I have helped various small and medium size teams to initiate and successfully launch React single-page applications.
